About

True Anomaly is a U.S. defense space company founded in 2022 by former U.S. Space Force operators. The company develops spacecraft and autonomous software designed to give the U.S. military and its allies the ability to protect assets in orbit and maintain operational advantage in contested space environments.

The company's hardware offering, Jackal, is a highly maneuverable, payload-agnostic spacecraft built for contested orbital conditions. It features multiple mission hardpoints capable of hosting a wide range of sensors and effectors, making it adaptable across different mission profiles. On the software side, Mosaic is an autonomous command-and-control platform that translates commander intent into action, enabling operators to make and execute decisions at speed across complex orbital scenarios.

True Anomaly's technical work spans space domain awareness, rendezvous and proximity operations, on-orbit threat response, and sensor and effector integration. Rather than treating hardware and software as separate efforts, the company positions Jackal and Mosaic as components of a single integrated ecosystem. Its stated approach emphasises speed and cost-effectiveness relative to traditional defense procurement models.

The company operates in the United States and counts U.S. allies among its intended customers and stakeholders. Its workforce draws heavily from military and national security backgrounds, reflecting a culture oriented around operational mission requirements rather than purely commercial space objectives.
